Somehow I missed your post above. Welcome to the challenge. Don't worry about posting a lot or a little. As you can see, I am limiting my images to mainly important events. Sometimes I don't even take screenshots of events. I missed BOTH engagements for Hunter and Serenity, and for Bryan and Shelby. :blush:
Don't feel that you have to keep up with my game. I am 61 and semi-retired. As a result, I am able to play for hours a day, every day of the week. I don't have a life. Well, I have a Sims life. :lol:
Some of the rules that I am following are from the original version of the game. See the original challenge
here.
This is why I started with one young adult female and one male and female child. I did make my bunker (7x10) a bit larger than the 6x5 that Natalie recommended as my Sims would need space to move around with all that had been placed in the bunker. I also added walls and a door for the bathroom. The children start out as strangers and it's dangerous outside, so it didn't make sense for them to have to go outside every time the other one needed to use the bathroom.
I also used the original aging system, starting my Sims with the medium setting. When Daniel and Teri reached adulthood (young adults), I added one day to each of the age groups. When their first child, Hunter, was born, I added another day. (I was supposed to wait until Hunter became a young adult to add the extra days. I will not be adding more days until Loni becomes a young adult.) Infants will only have three days, and toddlers will have five days. I am usually able to fully train the toddlers with days to spare with the seven days normally given for the normal lifespan.
